Every spring, voters across Pennsylvania participate in the Commonwealth’s primary elections.
But not all of them.
That's because Pennsylvania has closed primaries, meaning over 1.4 million independent voters—who pay their fair share of taxes—are excluded from voting in these elections, despite contributing $75 million each year to fund them.
It’s time to #RepealClosedPrimaries and ensure that every eligible voter in PA can participate in the primary elections.
Repealing closed primaries would create a more equitable system, foster more competitive elections, and help reduce political extremism and gridlock.
77% of Pennsylvanians—across all political affiliations—support ending closed primaries, including large majorities of independents, Democrats, and Republicans. Join the majority of PA voters who are calling for the repeal of closed primaries.
